Mobile Medical Units(MMUs)
What is it?
The MMU’s provide access to public health care, particularly to people living in remote, rural, underserved, and unreached areas.
The objective of this strategy is to make healthcare a doorstep facility provided to the vulnerable population. This facility is not meant for patient transportation where as the medical units will be mobile and be available to the patients as and when necessary.
